Good MorningInvestors got another shot of good news on Monday when Moderna released results from its early-phase COVID-19 vaccine trials. Moderna says its vaccine candidate produced very promising results in 95% of trial candidates surpassing the 90% success rate produced by Pfizer. While it will be many months before either vaccine is widely available the news is a balm to markets faced with rising COVID-19 cases. The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average both set new closing highs on the news and the NASDAQ Composite is close behind.
This week could see the markets continue to rise. There is a raft of economic data due out over the week and it could fuel the market melt-up. Longer-term, the event investors need to watch is the Georgia senate run-off. If the Republicans lose control of the senate all bets are off.
